sorry to report this horrific news, but apparently FUKUSHIMA REACTOR 4 HAS COLLAPSED. In the past 3 three weeks (following 5+ earthquakes) the building allegedly withered into the growing sinkhole, fracturing/destroying most of its structur...e. The fresh uranium rods that ran the reactor (which have for 496 days been exposed to the elements) pack enough weapons grade plutonium to theoretically wipe out billions, and they tumbled into the collapsed wreckage... This reactor also houses 50 years of used up (spent) uranium rods – supposedly more then enough plutonium to wipe out all life on Earth – but these were supposedly protected by an emergency cooling system since the tsunami quake. This system failed on June 30th, and its not clear if it ever came back on. TEPCO will not explain... On July 17th during the massive 160,000 crowd anti-nuke protest in Tokyo, the Japanese government allowed TEPCO (Fukushima's company) TO DEMOLISH ALL OF REACTOR 4 WITH A BULLDOZER CRANE. There is no clear picture and a total media blackout. The footage of TEPCO demolishing the building is all over the internet. Read this story from Yoichi Shimatsu, former general editor of The Japan Times Weekly: rense.com...

US In BIG Trouble With Fukushima Radiation
Thirteen months have passed since the Fukushima reactors exploded, and a U.S. Senator finally got off his ass and went to Japan to see what is going on over there.
What he saw was horrific.
And now he is saying that we are in big trouble.
See the letter he sent to U.S. Ambassador to Japan Ichiro Fujisaki, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and NRC’s Chairman Gregory Jaczko here.
But what is so ironic about this is that we have been in this heap of trouble since March of 2011. March 17th, to be exact, when the plume of radioactive materials began bombarding the west coast of California.

And Oregon. And Washington. And British Columbia. And later Maine, Europe, and everywhere in between.
Independent researchers, nuke experts, and scientists, from oceanography to entomology and everywhere in between, having been trying to sound the alarm ever since.
The scientists most upset are those who have studied the effects of radiation on health. I’ll say it again, so its really clear: we are in big trouble.
The most preliminary reports of soil contamination are starting to come in from the USGS, who has seemed reluctant to share this information. Los Angeles, California, Portland, Oregon, and Boulder, Colorado, so far have the highest radioactive particle contamination out of the entire US.
That being said, every single city tested across the country showed contamination from Fukushima. What is even more alarming, however, about the numbers coming in, is that they are from samples taken April 5th, of last year.
The Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, has only recently confirmed that there were three meltdowns, and they have been ongoing, unabated, for thirteen months, and no effort has been made to contain them.

No one seems to care about this anymore but this is going to be really bad and now it's been confirmed! This has been going on for a year and now confirmation of 3 meltdowns going on for 13 months!!!!!!
TEPCO just keeps dumping water on them, after which they let it pour into the ocean, and steam up through the ground, every second of every day. The jet stream, and a highly dynamic portion of our atmosphere called the troposphere, have been swirling around massive amounts of radioactive particles and settling them out, mostly in rain, over the entire northern hemisphere, especially the west coast of North America, from Alaska down to Baja and even further.
Maybe you have heard about sick seals, polar bears, tainted fish, mutations in dandelions and fruits and vegetables, possibly even animals already, and seaweed. In fact the kelp from Corona del Mar contained 40,000,000 bcq/kg of radioactive iodine, as reported in Scientific American several weeks ago.
If you don’t know your becquerels, its a lot. That’s what your pacific fish feed on. And that was only ONE isotope reported. There were up to 1600 different isotopes that have been floating around in our air, pouring out of the reactors, and steaming out of the ground, every second of every day, for 13 months.
And there has been silence from our mainstream media, for which the depths of depravity are so severe I will devote an entire article just to the “why” at a future time.
But back to the research: reports in the past week indicate the pollen in southern California is radioactive now too, and it is flying around, and if you live there and go outside, you are breathing it in. And so are your children.
Lies, lies and more lies and here it takes over a year for them to say yea your [SNIP]. All water and food has been contaminated at this point and there is still 3 more reactors to eventually meltdown. Still think nuclear energy is a good idea??? Might be wise to get a medical degree cause cancer rate are gonna soar!!
Along with fission products blowing over from Japan. And radiation in your drinking water. And in your rain. And in the fish you are eating. And your vegetables. And the milk supply. And its happening every second, of every day. For 13 months. Are you starting to see a problem here?
Problem is, that’s not even the biggest problem. The biggest problem is what Senator Wyden is all bent out of shape about, even though independent researchers and nuke experts have been warning about this for a year.
When Chernobyl happened, the RUSSIANS LIED to EVERYONE! They initially stated that only 86 people were damaged by radioactive contamination from the ACCIDENT. Ultimately, over 2,000,000 people were damaged by radioactive contamination. Oops! Missed by a MULTIPLIER of ONLY 23,255!
